Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” has garnered a leading nine nominations for the 83rd Golden Globe Awards, significantly boosting its momentum as an Oscar contender and marking a victory for Warner Bros. amidst a major acquisition deal with Netflix, valued at $72 billion. The film received nominations for its cast, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, Sean Penn, and Chase Infiniti, along with nominations for Anderson's screenplay and direction. It's competing in the comedy and musicals category, highlighting its prominence in the awards season, according to HuffPost, SFGate, and South China Morning Post.

Following closely in the nomination race is Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value,” a Norwegian family drama that has received eight nominations, including nods for four of its actors: Stellan Skarsgård, Renate Reinsve, Elle Fanning, and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas. The awards announcements, held in Beverly Hills, California, reflect a shifting landscape in entertainment, particularly with Netflix's recent acquisition deal that could redefine studio operations moving forward, according to HuffPost, SFGate, and South China Morning Post.

The competition this year is fierce, with Warner Bros. also having notable mentions for its film “Sinners,” which secured seven nominations, including best actor for Michael B. Jordan and best director for Ryan Coogler. Netflix, on the other hand, boasts films such as Noah Baumbach’s “Jay Kelly,” and Guillermo del Toro’s “Frankenstein,” both of which add to its considerable 35 total nominations this award season. This extensive slate includes recognition for the British limited series “Adolescence,” which received five nominations, according to HuffPost, SFGate, and South China Morning Post.

Among the changes this year, the Golden Globes will introduce an award for Best Podcast, featuring nominees such as “Armchair Expert With Dax Shepard” and “Call Her Daddy.” The ceremony represents an effort to transition from its past controversies and holds a place as a significant event in Hollywood's awards calendar. Nikki Glaser is set to host the Jan. 11 event, which will be aired on CBS and streamed on Paramount+, as the industry looks to restore the Golden Globes' reputation, according to HuffPost, SFGate, and South China Morning Post.
